There are a growing number of reports of agents impersonating construction workers, delivery drivers & anti-ICE activists, heightening fears in the state.

That's deceptive & unconstitutional, because they use trickery to get around warrant & consent protections.

Yes: one of the things that has kept protests peaceful is that the insider/outsider dynamic was so pronounced. The feds were invaders; local and state police were separate and not really against us.

What we’ve seen in the last couple days feels like the sheriff and state patrol switching sides.
Friends in Minneapolis are very worried about this development. Both in terms of state police's role in arresting protestors and the worry that this could set off the kind of spiral of distrust and destruction that followed George Floyd's murder.

NEW: The Trump admin certainly put on a show last week about changing tactics in Minnesota after ICE agents killed Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old VA nurse.

Trump even suggested it's time for "a softer touch."

Except residents say nothing has changed. At all. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

They're trying to tell us that they always get what they want. That there is nothing so hideous that they won't do it, even if it's kidnap a five year old child and then, when they lose, really try even harder to make him suffer more.

I think people often wonder this, and it's a great question, so let me explain the advantages of 3D printing whistles. There are many.

The 3D printing effort started from one of our organizers who started by sourcing mass-produced whistles.
I mean, are they really cheaper or easier to produce than just sourcing the right thing from a mass distributor? it's sweet but doesn't seem Pareto efficient, and I feel like that's important to the revolution

According to Harmeet Dhillon and Pam Bondi, disturbing a church service is a felony that deserves immediate arrest for. Think they'll go after these ICE agents?

Every single Democrat that voted for, or worse, signed onto Laken Riley knew exactly what they were doing:

Collaborating.

They thought Trump's win was a sign of a generational shift in the electorate.

They were wrong. And it's had devastating consequences.

They should admit it.
